Ok thank you!
I also see a scar on "Nola's" left knee like Megan's.
I hope it's her because it means she's alive, but I worry she never got very far from home
People on the prayer circle page and even Megan's bio dad keep saying "someone knows everything." I'm assuming they mean the boyfriend. However, in a post Megan's mom made on the prayer circle page she admits that this person said "she went to live with her dad."
So I think the boyfriend said she went to live with bio dad. Seems like dad wants to blame boyfriend and boyfriend is blaming dad. Boyfriend was last person she talked to before she left. I really think she is in Tulsa working as an escort. Especially since she was spotted by someone with her dad, dressed innapropriately 6 months before she ran away.
If I had to pick who would be involved in this between the boyfriend and bio dad I would absolutely pick the bio dad. Just look at the lifestyle he lives. Check out his Facebook- Jackson Nichols. And check out the Brodey kids Facebook and you'll see what I mean.

It looks a lot like her and her subscriptions are to 2 online type churches. If it is her no one should alert her and should probably pass it on to authorities. I don't know the case well enough to judge. Nor am I sure how someone would trace her from a YouTube account. Well I was hoping you guys would know what to do if anything.
I'm glad you submitted that, though I can't see the links you posted. One is saying that the domain name expired. Someone on another board suggested that Megan may have ran away to be a cam girl and I'm starting to think that seems likely. I don't know how to go about searching cam girl sites without getting tons of viruses and junk on my computer, though.
WOW.
The Megan Nichols with the YouTube account definitely resembles the missing Megan Nichols. And they have the same name?! Except the YouTube Megan is wearing glasses. The eyes, eyebrows, smile and hair are all very similar; I can't tell if both noses look similar tho. And the YouTube Megan has a baby.
But... it could be her.
I cropped and zoomed the photo from the missing flyer & the one from the YouTube account. I'm going to try to post them here. The YouTube pic looks a bit fuzzy. There's a remarkable resemblance, but if she doesn't want to be found, why not change her screen name?
Although she is over 18 now, right?

PS- I think I did it correctly, but the YouTube photo looks much smaller & fuzzier. You'll have to click on the link that EvanAB posted to get a better look at it.
http://www.mtcarmelregister.com/news...6c91e419f.htmlWAYNE COUNTY — The Wayne County Sheriff Department confirms that the FBI and Illinois State Police are currently investigating the discovery of human remains found in rural Wayne County on Tuesday. Identification has not yet been made. There is an active open missing persons case in the county. Megan Nichols was reported missing from her Fairfield home located in Wayne County in July 2014. Authorities say a positive identification could take days to complete.
I got an email saying this thread had been updated, and I figured this was what it was for. Apparently the discovery was of human remains (bones?) found wrapped in a blanket next to a field in a very rural area south of Boyleston, which is just a few miles west of Fairfield. Authorities aren't saying much at this point, but most people around here are assuming it is Megan. I feel kind of upset to think that she has been this close by for so long. :(
Forgot to add that remains were also found a couple of weeks ago, outside of Mt. Vernon which is about half an hour from Fairfield. So either one could be Megan, or they could both be other people. Sad, but hopefully we will get some resolution for these long-running cases.
Body has been identified but they haven?t released if it was Megan yet or not. A couple from Geff, a small nearby town was also arrested.
I guess I should say remains were identified.
Remains found in Wayne County were identified as Megan. News release out today.
http://www.ibtimes.com/megan-nichols...-grave-2647702A body found in rural Wayne County, Illinois, last month belongs to missing teenager Megan Nichols, who disappeared on July 3, 2014, the FBI confirmed Tuesday. The human remains were found in a shallow grave at a very remote site in rural Wayne County.
In a statement, FBI spokesman Brad Ware confirmed the victim’s identification but gave no other details saying that the investigation into Nichols' death is ongoing. Authorities first considered Nichols a runaway, but her family didn’t agree. And while her body has been found, the questions of what happened to her are still unanswered.
“If anyone wants to still submit tips, they can,” Ware told Dateline. “It’s an ongoing investigation, [and] details will not be released at this time.”
Nichols was last seen on July 3, 2014 at her home in Fairfield where she lived with her mother and stepfather. Her mother Kathy Jo Hutchcraft told authorities that Nichols had left a note behind, in which she mentioned she was not happy at home. However, the exact reason for her leaving the house was not mentioned.
Before her disappearance, the teenager withdrew money from a local bank while on her bicycle, authorities said, adding that she had left her cell phone behind at the house but no data was found in the phone.
"It's really hard to put it into words,” Hutchcraft told NBC affiliate 14 News, a year after her daughter's disappearance. “I dream about her and then I have to wake up to this. This is hell."
I'm gonna take a guess, but I don't think somebody buries their own self in a shadow grave. Somebody put that girl there.Authorities first believed Nichols ran away from her home, but her family rejected the theory, saying that it was possible that the teenager didn’t write the note or if she did, she may have written it under some threat.
During the investigation into Nichols disappearance, police thought the teenager may have reached out to her biological father, a registered sex offender. Her father was questioned after being found in Oklahoma but authorities found no evidence that he knew his daughter’s whereabouts.
After the teenager's body was found, authorities are trying to find out what happened to the young girl. Wayne County Coroner Jimmy Taylor said Tuesday that a result to determine the cause of death was yet to be received.
There have been a few reports on Facebook that the boyfriend committed suicide. but I can't find anything to substantiate it. And his sister is saying that is not true.
I'm stunned and saddened that she was so close by all this time. I'm not sure what to think now. I'm still not ready to accuse the boyfriend just yet.
Just to clarify this old post, the boyfriend's dad is a state trooper, not the chief of police. And his mom did not die in suspicious circumstances. She drowned in flood waters after her vehicle got stuck. It happens occasionally around here, usually in the spring.
I agree, but it's kind of weird that someone would bring her body all the way back to Wayne County. I think she probably died near home. Either she tried to run away and was murdered shortly thereafter, or she was killed at home and the scene was staged to make it look like she ran away. Or maybe she was on her bike and got hit by a car.
Agreed. I was just commenting on the family arguing she wasn't a runaway. I am sure they will be angry, like, "See? We told you." But her being murdered doesn't prove she wasn't a runaway, just proves she met with foul play. And for all we know she may not have left voluntarily, but her withdrawing that money before she disappeared makes me think she left on her own. She just may not have gotten very far.
What a sad outcome ☹
Will be interesting to hear what COD is.
RIP Megan.
Did the parents do that interview w/in the first month of finding her remains?
I just finished reading this thread, and after watching that video, seem to have even more questions. Or I could just be confused.
In the video the mom talks about her running away before w the boyfriend or is she talking about the only time?
Did the dad have a sex offender charge or not? I just heard "It was dropped" and didn't know for sure if he had one in the first place or not.
This video seemed to be biased in looking at the boyfriend and not anyone else. They don't have someone already right, so it could be anyone still. Have they ruled anyone out?
Maybe I should have looked for the whole video to watch. I feel like I missed parts.
Very sad it ended like this for her. I hope they catch the ppl responsible soon.
